Tally Vietnam Vets of America-Patriot Guard throw their 1st run

And a good one it was too. Not because the top hand won $1000.00 either. But because a large number of folk took on the predicted bad weather and suited up a showed up.  Numerous groups participated, none that I will name for fear of leaving one out.  Besides, it ain't about those of us that were able to help or just attend and have fun.  It was about insuring that we could stand for and assist LOCAL VETERANS.

And did ya know? You can do that and have a damn good time too!!!

The run started at CCHD, went to the Bottoms, Corner Bar, Salty Dog, Applebee's and ended up at K&K fish camp by Lake Iamonia where food was waiting and Kickin music wasn't far behind. Of course their were door prizes, raffle and 50/50. But most importantly were the people.  Those that sponsored the event, those that organized it and those that showed up to participate. You all know who you are, so to all of you we send a thanks that can't be expressed in words.  We also guarantee that we gonna do it again next year. Bigger and Better. So mark your Caleners now. Next year this time you got a MISSION!

Despite the fact that he probably won't want me to I will mention one name, Mike Donohoe. Without whom this gig would not have happened.  Yeah we all know that it's a team effort. We also all know that it is usually one person that does the lions share of the work.  So pat yourself on the back dude. Ya done good.
